    Notes: We have studied the morphology and crystallographic angular discontinuities of subboundaries and defect trails in zone-melting-recrystallized Si films. These subboundaries and defect trails, which originate at the interior corners of the faceted solidification front, are classified into seven types. Evidence is presented that in-plane stress due to temperature gradients plays a major role in causing such defects. Various schemes for entraining subboundaries and defect trails are described.

    Notes: Smooth layers of tungsten silicide have been formed on silicon substrates by deposition of a tungsten film, As+ ion implantation through the film to produce ion-beam mixing, and rapid thermal annealing. This process has been used to form tungsten silicide selectively in patterned openings etched in the SiO2 film on oxidized Si wafers, without lateral silicide growth. Rapid thermal annealing results in the activation of the As implanted in the Si substrate, without significant redistribution, to form shallow n+-p junctions with good electrical properties.

    Notes: The infrared absorption of Ir and IrSi thin films on Si substrates has been determined by transmission and reflection measurements over the wavelength range 2.5–25 μm. Detailed analysis of the dependence of absorption at 4 μm on film thickness indicates that a thin boundary layer with lower absorption than Ir is present at the Ir/Si interface and that such a layer with lower absorption than IrSi is present at the IrSi/Si interface. The existence of the boundary layers has been confirmed by the detection of oxygen at the interfaces by Auger analysis. Absorption and Auger measurements give no evidence of boundary layer formation at Pt/Si or PtSi/Si interfaces.

    Notes: Schottky barrier PtSi-Si diodes formed by ultrahigh vacuum deposition and annealing of 1-nm-thick Pt films on n- and p-type (100) Si substrates were characterized by current-voltage measurements at liquid-nitrogen temperature. The diodes exhibited nearly ideal characteristics, with barrier heights of 0.914 and 0.197 eV, respectively, for typical n- and p-type devices. Subsequent annealing in hydrogen increased the barrier height by 0.013 eV for the n-type devices and decreased it by the same amount for the p-type devices. Vacuum annealing of H2-annealed devices restored the barrier heights to approximately their initial values. These results can be attributed to the presence of Si interface defects that are passivated by hydrogen incorporation and subsequently reactivated by vacuum annealing to remove the hydrogen.

    Notes: In this analysis, the generalized kinematic equation for the thickness of the molten film is derived by perturbation methods and the method of multiple scales is used to investigate the weakly nonlinear stability of the flow of molten material in laser cutting under a transverse uniform magnetic field, taking into account the effect of phase change at the liquid–vapor interface. Analysis of the linear stability of the molten layer shows that the optimum cutting speed can be increased through use of the magnetic field. Nonlinear stability analysis further shows that supercritical stability and subcritical instability exist in the laser cutting system with or without magnetic effect. In a magnetic field, the equilibrium amplitude of high cutting speeds decreases, and the minimum threshold amplitude increases at low cutting speeds. The effect of the magnetic field, measured by the Hartmann number (m) is to stabilize the flow regardless of the cutting speed value or gas velocity. An appropriate applied magnetic field improves the laser cutting process and counteracts surface roughness. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A new zone-melting-recrystallization (ZMR) configuration with enhanced radiative heating has been developed for preparing silicon-on-insulator (SOI) films. With this configuration, in which the sample is positioned above the movable heater with the SOI film facing downward, subboundary-free 0.5-μm-thick SOI films are obtained over a much wider range of experimental parameters than with the conventional ZMR configuration. The characterization of these films by defect etching, optical microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy shows that the principal defects are isolated threading dislocations with a density of ∼106 cm−2. It should be possible to improve the material quality still further by optimizing experimental conditions for the new configuration.

    Notes: Crystalline thin films of SiCN have been grown by microwave plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition using H2, CH4, N2, and SiH4 gases. The ternary compound (C;Si)xNy exhibits a hexagonal structure and consists of a network wherein the Si and C are substitutional elements. While the N content of the compound is about 35–40 at. %, the extent of Si substitution varies and can be as low as 10 at. %. Optical properties of the SiCN compounds have been studied by photoluminescence (PL), piezoreflectance (PzR), and photothermal deflection (PDS) spectroscopies. From the PzR measurement, we determine the direct band gap of the new crystals to be around 3.8 eV at room temperature. PDS measurement shows two absorption features with the first peak at around 3.2 eV which is related to an indirect band gap. The second PDS peak occurred around 3.8 eV and is quite consistent with the direct band gap determined by PzR. From the PL measurement, it is also found that the SiCN compounds have a near band edge emission centered around 3.26 eV at room temperature, which is consistent with the fundamental band gap obtained from the PDS measurement. These optical results indicate the potential of SiCN for blue and uv optoelectronic applications. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Recent manufacturing of advanced ceramics has developed phase transformation and cracks tilted or bridged to enhance ceramic-inherent toughness. However, main crack and near-tip microcracks interaction is another prominent means in toughening of the ceramic materials. In this study, mechanics of discrete model combined with alternative iterating numerical technique is developed and applied in assessment of main–microcrack interaction. Consequences of main–microcrack interaction can either shield or amplify the resulting main crack stress intensity factor, which accounts for the increase or decrease of ceramic toughness. Numerical outcomes show good agreement with the available solutions in the literatures; in addition results also reveal that the toughness shielding or amplification is dependent on the type of loadings as well as location/orientation of the microcrack. Nevertheless, residual normal stress plays an important role in shielding/amplification region trade-off. This work may provide a useful quantitative tool in ceramic design and a valuable insight into main–micro interaction phenomenon.

    Notes: A breast tumour in a 47-year-old female with axillary lymph node metastasis was interpreted as the rare malignant adenomyoepithelioma based on morphological and immunohistochemical studies. Multiple bone metastases developed and the patient died after 7 months. The malignant neoplasm consisted of cords and interlacing bundles of spindle cells with indistinct cell borders and clear cytoplasm. The cells stained positively for cytokeratin. S-100 protein, GFAP, and muscle-specific actin, and possessed basal lamina, pinocytic vesicles, tonofilaments, desmosomes, and intermediate filaments with dense bodies. In some areas, cells with microvillous projections enclosed small spaces. In the breast, foci of myoepithelioma with various morphological subtypes and infiltration coexisted, demonstrating the origin of the malignant tumour. The histogenesis of the myoepithelial tumours is discussed.
